That was nice. Was able to get home from work last night before the snow began, got to spend a quiet Monday evening at home watching it fall and the roads were in good shape by me by the time I left this morning. I'll take it. Ready for spring now lol.

We are capable of wonderful things but our arrogance and short-sightedness often supersedes our intelligent side.
-
Nothing to lose. If it fizzles, we're back in the same snowless spot lol. At least it's something to look at and makes things somewhat interesting.
-
Same. If we can't have snow, let's have some nice days like this. Definitely puts me in a better mood. Feels like spring.
-
60 and sunny next Friday?! Maybe I'll use a personal day and make it an extra-long President's Day weekend.
-
Same day of the 49ers/Dolphins Super Bowl (Marino's only appearance in the big game). Wonder how many people decided not to venture out to parties and elected to hunker down and watch the game at home because of the cold.
-
Which basically takes us into mid-February. Time is ticking fast.
-
Can't wait for the media hysterics over two days of cold weather. Although with the winter we've had, maybe it actually does warrant coverage.
-
I don't know; I'm tempering my expectations until further notice. I don't like the trends we've seen in recent years.
-
Sad. You really wonder what the future holds for the skiing industry.

Three of the best plumbers that ever plumbed a plum!

Wow. Thought for sure we'd be caught up on the rain deficit after the last few months. We've had several doozies where it was just raining buckets.
-
It's like rooting for a terrible sports team that has no shot of making the playoffs and the season is only half over. Just end it and get to free agency and the draft.

Maybe he's still traumatized from March 2001 and January 2015.
-
Not a flake here yet and it's already above freezing. How many days until pitchers and catchers?
-
Until it actually gets cold, I'm going to assume it won't. This happens constantly with the models. The cold is always two weeks away, then gets pushed back or disappears altogether.
-
Seems like more ingredients have to come together in order to get snow. It's a more complicated picture, so it's harder to get a handle on that than if models show rain or that we'll be in the clear.
-
Same here. My craziest memory is watching the Nagano Winter Olympics in 1998 while it was about 70 degrees in February. There was a freaking thunderstorm one night while I was watching the ice hockey tournament. Unbelievable.
-
Makes you wonder how we got 95-96 out of that decade.
-
I'd rather have it be like this if snow is out of the question.
-
Even 97-98 had some chances in January though. I also remember getting a bit of snow right after Christmas.
-
Hostile? Yikes. Sounds like a torch. Then you have more things going against you when March arrives, although it has been slow to warm up around here in recent years as spring approaches. A shutout is a very real possibility. Do we hope for a garbage time touchdown to get rid of the goose egg or just embrace the chance that history will be made?
-
It's like rooting for a football team that's already losing by 20 or 30 points at halftime every week. You're not losing heartbreakers but there's not really a compelling reason to stick around until the end either.
-
Yeah, even in '97-'98 (which was also horrible) there were a couple of threats in January that I remember...1/7, 1/22, etc. There was even a bit of snow in December of '97. I remember flakes flying the day of the Giants/Vikings playoff game where Big Blue lost a 9-point lead with two minutes left.

Felt like a late fall/early winter morning.
